Reviews
This is a book for those who plan, buy, or design printing, written by three "lifers" in the graphic art and printing in dustries. Designed to educate the consumer in all phases of production, it is organized according to the sequence of most printing projects from design to shipment. Valuable discussions along the way of lesser and greater concerns (e.g., specs, evaluating quotations, monitoring quality, papers, inks, printing processes, delivery, packaging, trade customs) make the book a useful reference for novices and the experienced alike. Inclusiveness formats from fliers to books and fine illustrative material comparative visuals, charts, check lists, diagrams are this book's major strengths. It is technical yet accessible, instructional but interesting. Recommended. Ann Cope land, Drew Univ. Lib . , Madison, N.J.
